The present invention relates to: a temperature-sensitive hydrogel for cancer treatment; a photothermal composition comprising the hydrogel as an active ingredient; and a preparation method for the temperature-sensitive hydrogel for cancer treatment. The temperature-sensitive hydrogel of the present invention includes gold nanostars as active ingredients, and thus can generate heat by light irradiation, thereby exhibiting a photothermal therapy effect. In addition, the hydrogel temperature increases so that the release of nitric oxide (NO) from S-nitrosocysteine can be induced. In addition, the temperature-sensitive hydrogel of the present invention includes S-nitrosocysteine as an active ingredient so that, upon a temperature rise due to a photothermal reaction, the penetration of drugs into a tumor site can be improved by the release of NO, and at the same time, apoptosis of cancer cells can be directly caused; and includes an immunotherapy agent as an active ingredient so that tumor size can be effectively suppressed even with the passage of time. Therefore, as a material that enables complex treatment combined with photothermal therapy and immunotherapy, the temperature-sensitive hydrogel of the present invention having the aforementioned effect can be usefully utilized in the field of medicine for cancer treatment.

Compositions, methods, and kits are provided for treating bacterial infections with nanoclusters comprising a metallic core conjugated to a nucleotide. Recalcitrant infections are often difficult to treat because of the presence of persister cells, a subpopulation of bacterial cells that is highly tolerant of traditional antibiotics. Persister cells are dormant, which makes them less susceptible to many antibiotics, which are designed to kill growing cells. Administration of nanoclusters comprising a nucleotide was found to be highly efficacious in eradicating persister cells and for treating infections for a broad range of bacterial species, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Such treatment was effective not only in eradicating planktonic bacteria but also bacteria in biofilms.

The present disclosure features imaging media including a contrast agent encapsulated within a biodegradable nanoparticle matrix. The particles are sized such that they avoid excretion via urinary excretion (e.g., at least 5 nm in diameter) during an imaging procedure or an image-guided procedure. Instead, the particles are predominantly removed from circulation by the reticuloendothelial system of the liver. This results in a buildup of contrast agent in the liver, allowing for a highly specific imaging modality for liver imaging. Further, the bulk of the imaging media is excreted into the bowel, reducing in-vivo toxicity of the imaging media. Finally, because of their size, the nanoparticles of the imaging media have a higher circulation half-life.
